Tina O’Brien ditches wedding ring AGAIN amid rumours Coronation Street star has split from husband Adam Crofts

Yet while mum-of-two Tina wrapped up in a suede jacket and jeans, accessorising with a pair of sunglasses, the absence of a band on her left hand was clear.

Despite the mystery over her marriage, the ITV favourite looked relaxed as she perched on a wooden chair.

The Sarah-Lou Platt actress was later spotted leaving the Cheshire cafe with her dog.

She kept her coat slung over her left hand as she made her way to her car, before heading off towards Manchester.

It is the second time in three days the soap star has been seen without her wedding ring.

She was seen without her diamond engagement ring on a night out – on which she risked an awkward reunion with ex Ryan Thomas.

She has been married to businessman hubby Adam Crofts for nearly seven years.

Tina, who has a ten-year-old son with Adam, posted pictures of herself in a red dress while out with pals in Manchester on Friday.

She has also unfollowed Adam, 39, on Instagram.

SPLIT CLUES?

Last month, Tina went to Barbados without Adam — instead taking her 16-year-old daughter she shares with former Corrie co-star Ryan Thomas, 40.

A source said: “The couple moved house at Christmas and it was a stressful time.

“They have been on separate holidays and it cemented for them that they want to be on their own.

“Everyone is hoping they can work it out but it’s not looking likely.”

Amid the split speculation, it has been revealed how Adam’s business has gone into administration.

Cleaning whizz shares two-second 13p trick to get all the pet hair out of your laundry in seconds

IF you’ve got pets, you’ll know how annoying it is to find hairs covering your laundry.

So it’s no wonder that a cleaning whizz has been praised after sharing a quick, budget-friendly hack to remove pet hair from your freshly washed clothes in seconds.

Pet hair removal tip using hair curlers in a washing machine.
Claire, aka Sister Pledge Cleans, took to TikTok to share her two-second trick to get pet hair off your laundry

And your washing will come out squeaky clean – and hair free[/caption]

Claire took to TikTok to share her top tip, as she said: “I have pets – cats, dogs, guinea pigs – if you have any laundry that might have pet hair on it, throw a couple of Velcro rollers in the machine and this will pick up the hair.”

Once the wash has finished, you can rub the rollers together to remove the hair – or you can pick the strands off – and then they’re ready to use again.

But you don’t need to spend loads on posh rollers, as Claire added you can pick any cheap ones up from shops like B&M or Savers.

In fact, you can find Velcro rollers for as little as 13p each online.

“Get as many in the machine as you think you need, you can put five or six in if it’s very hairy and don’t worry about it damaging your fabrics, it won’t,” Claire, who also shared cleaning hacks on her Instagram page, said.

“As long as the fabrics you’re washing are things like cottons and linens and things like that.

“But don’t put it in with very delicates, don’t use these with things like silks or woollens, don’t use anything with anything that’s going to snag.”

However, other than those provisos, the rollers work wonders when they’re put in the drum.

“Just pop them in the machine and off you go,” she concluded.

And people in the comments section were quick to praise Claire for sharing the hack, with one writing: “I was 53 years old when……thanks!”

“Why have I never thought of these?” another said.

“I’ve used pet hair dissolver and loads of ridiculous other things that have never worked!

“Can’t wait to try this!!”

“Brilliant cos I always get covered in Chihuahua hair,” a third added.

“I have 1 Jack Russell, I’ll need a full pack! Thank you,” someone else wrote.

“Amazing! I’ve got two black cats the pet hair in the machine drives me insane,” another praised.

Cleaning hacks and tips

Here are some tips to help you clean your home like a pro:

“Wow, great idea thanks,” someone else said.

“Got cat hair all over the clothes.”

“How did you know I needed to wash my Labrador’s bedding!” another wrote.

“Trying this!”

“Why didn’t I know about this sooner. Love this!” someone else said, as another called it “such a good idea”.

“Aw thanks got 3 dogs will try this!” someone else wrote.

“Think you just have made my life so much easier,” another added.

“I’ve got a gaggle of Newfoundlands (hair lands everywhere) my towels always come out in clumps of dog hair – thanks for this!”

“Wow, this is a game changer,” another gushed.

As someone else said they were “off to Home Bargains” to buy some.

Others shared their own tips, with one writing: “I put a new scourer sponge pad in my washing machine to collect hair.”

Colossal Grand National gamble on ‘horse who stunned the world’ keeps building as bookies run for cover

A COLOSSAL Grand National gamble on a horse ‘who stunned the world’ is showing no signs of slowing down.

Worried bookies are running for cover after bargain £800 buy Hewick plummeted to as short as 10-1 having been backed in from 50s.

The former King George hero looks sure to get his preferred good ground at Aintree and his trainer Shark Hanlon reckons he could easily go off favourite for the £1million race.

A Grade 1 winner with bags of stamina, ten-year-old Hewick – who also likes a pint of Guinness – is unexposed over the 4m2f trip.

But everything about him suggests he’ll relish the flat Aintree track.

And bookies are certain the money will continue to flow for one of the most popular horses around having already been walloped ante-post.

Ladbrokes are one of the bookies offering a bottom price of 10s and the firm’s Cal Gildart said: “The £800 horse who stunned the racing world with his run from last to first at the 2023 King George is making a similar move in the betting market for this year’s Grand National.

“With so much backing, you wouldn’t put it past Hewick to go off as the favourite.”

Shark has already confirmed jockey Gavin Sheehan, who steered Hewick to that incredible King George success, is back in the saddle.

The pair came from the clouds to win a pulsating Kempton Christmas cracker in 2023 after the late, great Shishkin went down at the second-last with the race seemingly at his mercy.

Coral’s David Stevens said their traders had also cut Hewick to 10s.

He added: “With only four horses ahead of Hewick in the National betting now, Shark Hanlon’s prediction that his charge would start favourite for the famous contest is looking less and less outrageous.

“Indeed at the current rate he will be single figure odds soon enough.”

Irish trainer Tom Gibney’s former Irish Grand National winner Intense Raffles heads the market at 7-1.

The grey has run over fences just once this season and is yet to actually tackle a National-style fence, which is made from spruce brought down from the Lake District.

But Gibney is confident he has what it takes to perform on the biggest stage.

He said: “I’d prefer to have the favourite rather than a 50-1 shot all day long.

“He doesn’t know he’s favourite and we just do the same thing – and if it works great, and if it doesn’t, what about it.”

British-trained runner Iroko is the best home hope for success, while recent Cheltenham Festival winner Stumptown is 8-1.

Jake and Logan Paul lift lid on how they convinced partners Jutta Leerdam and Nina Agdal into filming reality TV show

JAKE PAUL and brother Logan had a fight to convince their better halves into a giving up their privacy to film an all-access TV series.

Paul American airs on HBO’s Max in the States and features the celebrity family from Ohio.

Jake and Logan’s parents – loving mum Pam and no-nonsense dad Greg – star throughout the eight-partner.

But having raised two of the internet’s biggest stars, Pam and Greg have long been exposed to the lights, camera and action.

It’s a different story for Logan’s fiancee – Danish supermodel Nina Agdal – and Jake’s partner – Dutch speedskater Jutta Leerdam.

In fact, Logan had to produce a PowerPoint presentation to convince Nina leave nothing off limits in the name of entertainment.

WWE superstar Logan, 29, told SunSport: “Yeah, it was hard. But, you know, Max pays well! 

“The pay definitely helps, helps my fiance Nina feel comfortable with putting parts of her life on camera that she literally never would have ever.

“And, I also convinced her. I made a PowerPoint and said, you should be a reality TV star and sold her. I’m a good salesman!”

Boxer Jake, 28, added: “I think for Jutta, she’s still like not loving it.

“I think she’s still getting used to it all and I think she doesn’t like how she’s portrayed in the hands of like a team of editors. 

“I think that I understand that it could be hard sometimes and people try to paint narratives that are different than reality sometimes.”

In the show, Logan proposed to Nina and they welcomed baby daughter Esme into the world last September.

And Jake also recently announced his engagement to Jutta.

The prankster-turned-przefighter now wants babies of his own and said: “I think it would be great for all of our kids to grow up together.

“I think they’re gonna be each other’s best friends because of the fact that they’re gonna be growing up in a crazy world that is so different than most other kids and they’re not gonna be able to turn and trust a lot of people.

“So I think it’d be good for our kids to be able to be close in age for sure.”

Jake’s most recent boxing win – against Mike Tyson – is covered towards the back end of the series.

The bout was heavily criticised amid 58-year-old Tyson’s age but still over 100 MILLION tuned in to watch live on Netflix.

Jake then entered shock talks to fight Mexican legend Canelo Alvarez, 34, in a planned Las Vegas mega-bout on May 3.

But Canelo pulled out at the last minute to instead sign a four-fight deal with Saudi Arabia’s Turki Alalshikh.

And Jake slammed: “He just missed out on creating arguably the biggest, if not the second biggest fight of all time which could have potentially beat me and Mike Tyson. 

“I think that’s worth more than money, right? Canelo has money, so I think for his legacy and the fan base that he could have tapped into by fighting me. 

“He really chose the money over that because they was threatening to pull his $300million contract with Saudi.

“So he chose that versus creating a legacy and doing one of the biggest fights ever.”
